Every year, 2024 back to 1870
Each row compares December prices in that year with December 2025. Before 1913 the index is Robert Shiller’s reconstruction from older price records, so those years are estimates; from 1913 on it is the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ consumer price index. To compare any two years, not just against 2025, use the inflation calculator.
